Directed Schmooze: Supporting Your Jewish Student in the College Process
The college process can be stressful to navigate, especially when considering the pressure to gain admission to a selective school. Jewish families might also be considering whether the Jewish community on campus meets their student’s needs, and they might be concerned about antisemitism. This adds another layer to the complexity of the college search.
In this workshop, we will discuss the complexities of the college process through a uniquely Jewish lens. Through guided discussion, participants will assess their priorities and values when conceptualizing the ideal college for their student. Parents will leave this interactive workshop with information that will help them support their student in choosing a good-fit college.
Program: Jewish Justices of the Supreme Court
Today’s presentation is a selection of highlights from a course called “Jewish Justices of the Supreme Court,” created by KB member Carol Agate. We will learn about the justices' Jewish backgrounds, their connections to Judaism, the discrimination they faced, and some of the more interesting moments of their lives on the bench.
